George Galloway, recently elected in east London’s heavily Muslim Bethnal Green & Bow area, gave an insane ranting interview to Abu Dhabi television in November 2004 in which he likened Fallujah to Stalingrad and said the “criminals who invaded” Iraq would burn in hell. (Video courtesy MEMRI TV.)

The people who invaded and destroyed Iraq and have murdered more than a million Iraqi people by sanctions and war will burn in Hell in the hell-fires, and their name in history will be branded as killers and war criminals for all time. Fallujah is a Guernica, Falluaja is a Stalingrad, and Iraq is in flames as a result of the actions of these criminals. Not the resistance, not anybody else but these criminals who invaded and fell like wolves upon the people of Iraq. And by the way, those Arab regimes which helped them to do it will burn in the same hell-fires.

This pathetic pandering didn’t improve Galloway’s standing with Britain’s radical Muslims, who attacked him and threatened him with death during his campaign.
